Peacefull Feelings Just set back and let your mind wander. Although this is called Peacefull Feelings it was not easy. I had a great sounding EZKeys 2 harp sounding track but putting those chords into BiaB was not easy. Thus I reversed the process and put chords into BiaB then had EZKeys 2 generate a new harp track, much easier. BiaB style = New Age Alberti Piano and Strings Tempo = 58 BPM I deleted the piano. Harp from EZKeys 2 = Kontakt - preset - Glissando Harp Bass - Kontakt - Amadeus - preset - Basses Guitar - Kontakt - Amadeus - preset - Full string ensemble Strings - EastWest Symphonic choir - preset - full choir Me - nylon string guitar Via my wind controller - Swam - Bansuri flute - 3 warm As usual all comments are welcomed.

You know, Mario, one thing your tunes all have in common. They ARE peaceful. Well, maybe The Dance Floor could be an exception. hehe Man, one thing for sure is I'd watch any movie your scored --often with my eyes closed. That flute is awesome. So clear and clever.

My mind is enjoying a calming and beautiful journey. The strings are like waves on the ocean of life and Bansuri flute is a colorful bird flying above it, the harp sounds like the wind playing the ropes of the sails. Great work with playing and harmonious selection of instruments. I feel I'm getting closer to Venus than Uranus  Janne

Bob Thanx so much for taking the time to listen and commenting on my song. I appreciate it. You know, Mario, one thing your tunes all have in common. They ARE peaceful.

Thanx Marty. Thanx for the movie and flute comments also. I doubt that I will ever score a movie because I do this has a hobby, thus I do not want any deadlines!

fj Thanx so much Floyd for this wonderful review. That nylon is an elcheapo $79 guitar with a cheap $10 piezo mic. I recorded it directly into my computer via my audio interface. Then I just EQed it.

The nylon and the flute were the perfect pair!
